1. The NAMA Facility – Support for the Implementation of NAMAs

2. The concept of NAMAs: Background “Nationally Appropriate Mitigation Actions (NAMAs) to be taken in the context of sustainable development and in a measurable, reportable and verifiable (MRV) manner” (Bali Action Plan / UNFCCC 2007)  Voluntary climate protection measures taken by developing countries, embedded within their national development plans.  supported and enabled by financing, technology, and capacity building from developed countries.  potential to significantly contribute to global efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions  combine broad-based climate action with the achievement of sustainable development goals 2

3. The concept of NAMAs: Fundamental elements Emerging consensus on some characteristics that serve to strengthen the transformational change potential of NAMAs: Country-driven and anchored in national development strategies and plans NAMAs should strive to be sector-wide programmes that are national in scope, even if regional or municipal elements could form part of the overall design Combination of policy and finance: Policies should serve to create an enabling environment and channel financial flows into low-carbon investments. Financial mechanisms should address potential barriers for investment and leverage potential public support for mitigation activities. Measurement, Reporting and Verification (MRV) of these actions is important to generate transparency on their effectiveness and facilitate decision-making. 3 Source: Worldbank

4. Purpose and Facts of the NAMA Facility Purpose: Demonstrating a framework for providing tailor-made climate finance for developing countries in the field of mitigation. Building on existing support by funding the implementation of transformational NAMAs seeking international support, thus delivering concrete results on the ground. Raising ambition to close the global emissions gap and address the lack of NAMA climate finance. Facts : Officially announced by Germany and the UK at COP-18 in Doha Germany and the UK jointly provided € 120m of funding First pilot programme is the Mexico Housing NAMA: EcoCasa programme 4

9. Selection Criteria of the NAMA Facility The selection of NAMA Support Projects is based on three sets of criteria: General eligibility Ambition Feasibility/readiness Focus: 9

10. The First Call for NAMA Support Projects The NAMA Facility received lots of international attention. During the first call, a total of 47 NAMA Support Project Outlines were received. The bids submitted had a wide geographical and sectoral coverage. The following NAMA Support Project Outlines have been pre-selected for funding from the NAMA Facility. Chile - Self-Supply Renewable Energy in Chile (SSRE) Colombia - Transport Oriented Development NAMA Costa Rica - Low Carbon Coffee NAMA Indonesia - Sustainable Urban Transport Program (SUTRI NAMA) Pre-selected projects are currently undergoing an in-depth appraisal. The TSU provided feedback to all countries and delivery organisations, whose NAMA Support Project Outlines were not selected during the 1st Call 10

11. Lessons Learned from the First Call Availability of support has encouraged the development of a significant project pipeline across different sectors and regions Complex sectors like transport and agriculture, which were not well suited to being tackled by CDM/JI, are now effectively addressed through the concept of NAMAs Project outlines generally rated higher on ambition than on feasibility criteria More emphasis on the elaboration of a solid project structure as well as to set up financial mechanisms to leverage additional public and private finance needed 11

12. Lessons Learned from the First Call In preparation of the second call, the processes and documents were revised based on the lessons learned: General Information Document (more detailed information) Outline Template (restructured, more sub-questions) Additional provision of information on the website Learning lessons will be one of the constant areas of work of the NAMA Facility It is one of the objectives of the NAMA Facility to analyse the project pipeline and to provide lessons learned, allowing the development and improvement of a pipeline of ambitious, transformational NAMA Support Projects. 12

13. Second Call for NAMA Support Projects The € 70m from the initial replenishment has been fully committed BMUB and DECC have committed additional funds of € 50 million in 2014 The second call ended on July 15th 2014 Information on the second call is available at www.nama-facility.org or write to contact@nama-facility.orgwww.nama-facility.org contact@nama-facility.org 13 Call for projects April 7 – July 15th Evaluation of NAMA Support Projects according to criteria Communication of results 4 th quarter 2014

14. Second Call: First results 49 outlines were received A large variety of sectors and all geographic regions is represented Evaluation of submissions ongoing Eligibility Ambition Feasibility The results of the second call will be communicated to the submitters of the NAMA Support Project Outlines after the conclusion of the evaluation process towards the end of the year 14
